The Millennium Biltmore Hotel has been the premier choice for celebrities, presidents and
dignitaries for nearly 90 years. Few Los Angeles hotels boast the ideal locale and sumptuous
comforts this luxury hotel has to offer. Situated at the heart of L.A's vibrant cultural district,
the hotel is just steps away from major attractions, such as L.A. Live, the Ahmanson Theatre,
Walt Disney Concert Hall and Dodger Stadium.
